Originating in Belgium, table beers are low ABV, lighter-bodied ales or lagers traditionally consumed with dinner. Halcyon Barrel House brewmaster Bryce McBain sought to create the perfect table beer for occasions spent sitting with friends, sharing advice and talking about life. The result is Life Advice table beer, the third and latest offering from Halcyon Barrel House.
Life Advice sits at a 3.5% ABV, and is fermented with saison yeast and a custom mixed culture of Ontario wild yeasts, along with lactic acid bacteria. It features a touch of Strisselspalt and Hersbrucker hops. True to Halcyon fashion, it is barrel aged and bottle conditioned.
Life Advice pours a hazy straw gold with light foam lacing. The aroma is mild and fruity, with subtle peach and wine. A soft grain flavour plays in the background to a more dominant fruity yeast character. Just a bit of tartness contributes to its refreshing nature. Effervescent and barrel-kissed, this easy-to-enjoy saison finishes dry, and leaves you wanting more.

An Ok drinking ale, some hops and dry. On tap at Hungry Hops in Newmarket. So-so drinkability. Rather uninteresting yet for this division. Hazy yellow.
